Hi Colin,

Many thanks for all your efforts to resurrect the PMDG liveries.

I've just come back to simming after a lengthy gap, with a new pc. I guess I was a month too late for my PMDG aircraft.

I've never used python but downloaded it and ran the batch file. Sadly, I received 2 errors:

requirements.txt not found

main.py file not found in the src directory

Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Thanks again.

Hello there,

Welcome back to the wonderful world of flight simming

The error suggests you might've run the bat file in isolation.

Regarding the downloader, you should download and extract the zip file into a directory, then launch the run.bat file from that directory. The bat file should be alongside the src and metadata directories as well as the requirements.txt file

Hi Colin,

Well, somehow I figured it out.

The directory was fine but I had tried to run the batch file as administrator, rather than "open"

All is good with the downloads - now I just have to figure out the installations.

Thanks again.

Please don't hesitate to contact me here or via private messages if you require assistance. I will be more than happy to help, albeit time limited during weekdays.

I have some final behaviours to implement and then I will focus on addressing the styling (light and dark mode) as well as mitigating the need to run the application as administrator (required because it writes to C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin)

Sorry if this request is off topic but does this installer work either for PTP liveries found here on avsim library? I downloaded some for my NGX but can't install anymore w/o OC2. Can someone have a walkaround? thanks in advance

EDIT: I found this tools that works perfectly on P3D https://github.com/gayviator/PMDG-P3D-livery-installer/releases/tag/v1.2.0

it has also an automatic livery installer, great tool!

I haven't tried the new one yet, but this one does work for 3rd party PTP: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HDAWry5fRPU3dHCieboR0V9gI-Ghtahf/view?usp=sharing

Many thanks! I'll try it

Is there also an way to update the aircrafts? I have downloaded the B747 V3 ( fsx ) but i cant install the B747-8 because the B747 isnt the latetst version.... ?

Before shutting down OC2, PMDG updated the installers in their servers, so that no updates were needed.

Well, i bought the 747 throughout Aerosoft. The dont have the latest installer.... I contacted Aerosoft support, they told me to contact PMDG, and PMDG told me that Aerosoft received the latest installer so i had to report with Aerosoft. Aerosoft told me they didnt received the latetst installer...
